Sat Mar 08 20:30:00 UTC 2025: **Collin Morikawa a Top DFS Pick for Arnold Palmer Invitational Despite Past Bay Hill Struggles**
ORLANDO, FL – With the Masters looming, the world’s top golfers are set to compete in this weekend’s Arnold Palmer Invitational at the notoriously challenging Bay Hill Golf Course. While World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is the favorite, DraftKings content writer Griffin Wong highlights Collin Morikawa as a strong DFS value pick at $9,800.
Wong acknowledges Scheffler’s strong course history and statistical advantages, particularly his excellent approach game. However, he points to Morikawa’s superior tee-to-green performance this season, ranking second only to Rory McIlroy. Despite Morikawa’s mixed results in previous appearances at Bay Hill (including missed cuts), Wong argues that his current form and the inherent volatility of golf make him a worthwhile risk.
Morikawa has consistently performed well in the limited signature events he’s played this season, including a runner-up finish at The Sentry. Wong’s analysis emphasizes Morikawa’s potential to overcome his past struggles at Bay Hill, making him an attractive option for DFS players looking for a potentially high-reward selection. The article concludes with a reminder that DFS success is not guaranteed and that players should utilize their own judgment in lineup construction.
